"Well, well, well. She returns from her lover's arms to grace us with her presence," Devon said venomously at her from in the shadows. "I don't know what you're talking about," Jeslyn replied calmly, although she was anything but calm. "I had only found a secret passage and had decided to see where it lead to." "Don't try lying to me, I saw him leaning against that mirror after you so rudely turned me down. Lets go outside where we know he can't hear us." Devon took Jeslyn by the arm roughly and started to lead her out of the room. Jeslyn struggled, "ERIK! ERIK!" she screamed back toward the mirror but there was no response, Erik was fast asleep far down under them. Once they were outside, Devon began to speak to a now obviously distressed Jeslyn, "So, you love him do you. My guess is that you don't want everyone knowing about him. I mean come on, who would let a freak like him live." Jeslyn slapped Devon. He looked at her shocked. "I would do anything to protect him." she coldly replied. "That's exactly what I thought and that's why we're going to make a little deal. You will go out with me and you will make him believe that you don't love him. Break his heart." Jeslyn thinks it over, "And if I refuse?" "If you refuse, I'll tell anyone who will listen about him and I guarantee you he won't be so happy much longer," Devon threatened. Jeslyn gave in and nodded her head yes, tears coming to her eyes. "I knew you'd see it my way. We'll keep this our little secret until opening night, okay?" She only nodded her head. "May I go back to my room?" "Yes, but remember, if he or anyone else catches wind of this, my cell phone is always with me." Devon said threateningly as she walked away. Once back inside Jeslyn ran to her room, now crying whole-heartedly. She jumped on her bed and began to sob into the pillow. A few moments later Kaori came in. "Jeslyn, what's wrong? What did The Phantom do to you? Did he hurt you? If he did..." "No, he didn't do anything, I'm just over tired right now." Jeslyn lied to Kaori. "I don't think that's it, but I know I won't get anything out of you until you feel like talking about it, so I'll leave you alone. Feel better." And with that she left the room. Jeslyn began to sing, "I gave you my music. Made your song take wing. And now, how you've repaid me: denied me and betrayed me. He was bound to love you, when he heard you sing." She stopped singing, "Oh god, what is he going to do on opening night. What am I going to do?" She cried out in despair. She slowly cried herself to sleep.
